“…People with brain injury, however, often experience these characteristics as a result of their brain injury, impacting on their ability to participate in appropriate occupational roles (McClure, Devlin, McDowall, & Wade, 2006;Noggle & Pierson, 2010). For adolescents generally, consideration has been given to how they engage in risk taking behaviours particularly as there are associated alcohol, substance abuse and criminal behaviours (Noggle & Pierson, 2010).…”

“…Noggle and Pierson (2010) indicated that the risk of contact with the criminal justice system increased if the young person sustained their injury prior to the age of five. While some stakeholders identified this as a concern in Study 1, it was also uncertain as to whether this was something that could possibly be addressed within a health care setting, or rather was this the responsibility of other support and services (such as family and the justice systems).…”

Young people with an acquired brain injury: Development of a pilot program to support their transition to adulthood

The transition into adulthood is one of significance as societal expectations require a person to participate in adult occupations that contribute to their community. While the significance of transition has been well recognised, consideration is still being given to how this process can be best supported. Health care transition is seen as the planned movement of young people with chronic conditions from paediatric to adult orientated care systems. Processes surrounding transition to adult health services became topical when it was realised that young people have a heightened risk of being lost to medical follow up during this time, impacting their long term health outcomes. Discussion regarding what is best practice to facilitate transition between services has resulted in a number of guiding principles being advanced. The need to prepare and guide families through a gradual process, and address the medical, psychosocial and vocational needs of young people, underpins many of these principles. Acquired brain injury (ABI) can be described as any injury sustained to the brain and may be the result of trauma, stroke, hypoxia, surgery or infection. It has been identified that people who sustain an ABI during childhood are at risk of having poorer outcomes with respect to health, employment and lifestyle compared to their peers and as a result, may require support well into adulthood.The overall aim of this thesis was to ascertain the effectiveness of a formal transition program for young people with ABI. In order to answer the proposed question, two distinct studies were undertaken. The first study focused on program development. This study was exploratory in nature, and sought to gain an understanding regarding the complexities associated with transition for young people with ABI. The specific aims of Study 1 were to: The pilot was successful in meeting the third objective as participants reported overall high levels of satisfaction and client centred care. There were no significant improvements with respect to iv increased knowledge of services available during adulthood or in the level of functional independence of the young person during this period.This study provides insights into the complexities associated for young people with ABI at the time of transition. It indicates that a transition program is required to support these young people navigate these complexities. Preliminary findings indicate that the proposed transitional care program provides client centred care. Non significant change in performance and knowledge related outcome measures however, indicate that further research is required to refine this program.

Social Competence in Children with Brain Disorders: A Meta-analytic Review

et al. 2014

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Social competence, i.e. appropriate or effective social functioning, is an important determinant of quality of life. Social competence consists of social skills, social performance and social adjustment. The current paper reviews social skills, in particular emotion recognition performance and its relationship with social adjustment in children with brain disorders. In this review, normal development and the neuro-anatomical correlates of emotion recognition in both healthy children and adults and in various groups of children with brain disorders, will be discussed. A systematic literature search conducted on PubMed, yielded nine papers. Emotion recognition tasks were categorized on the basis of task design and emotional categories to ensure optimal comparison across studies before an explorative meta-analysis was conducted. This meta-analytic review suggests that children with brain disorders show impaired emotion recognition, with the recognition of sad and fearful expressions being most impaired. Performance did not seem to be related to derivative measures of social adjustment. Despite the limited number of studies on a variety of brain disorders and control groups, outcomes were quite consistent across analyses and corresponded largely with the existing literature on development of emotion recognition in typically developing children. More longitudinal prospective studies on emotion recognition are needed to gain insight into recovery and subsequent development of children with distinct brain disorders. This will aid development, selection and implementation of interventions for improvement of social competence and quality of life in children with a brain disorder.
